What was life like in 1938 in the UK?

Answer 1

English life is different from life in the US, but if you mean what was going on in the news, in music, in politics, and socially, the concerns there probably were much like here: England's pop music invaded the US in the early 60s so in a sense we were led by what was going on with England's young people, and thereafter, everything quickly changed from what had been a very conventional social mentality (home, country, religion, apple pie in the US, apple tart in England) to unconventional (do your own thing, let it all hang out, let's smoke pot).

At the time, because we were young, it seemed exciting and 'new' but looking at it all now from the perspective of the past 40+ years, it may have been fun at the time, but our society and England's were deeply affected (and irrevocably changed) in some very negative ways. The moral of the story is "be careful what you wish for."

Answer 2
